dtolman, though I agree wholehartedly with your comments, it must be noted that by entering the war the military-industrial corporate state (a neccessary component of fascism) was formally enacted (aided and abetted by deficit spending) along with other industrial subsidies. This state/corporate partnership thrived during the cold war and can be credited with many of our more fascist political and cultural tendencies.

Taken with knowledge of the Business Plot of 1933 and the contemporary actions taken by the Nazi government there is little doubt there was a palpable movement among monied interests within the United States to bring this country toward fascism. Because of FDR's socialist redistribution of wealth and initial opposition to Keynes' economic suggestions against balancing the budget, -- the banking and industry giants just weren't making enough money.
